We are all good and super pleased with Joel. He really is awesome and very flexible to fit in with Katie’s schedule and requirements on learning.
Emma

Inside Hope IslandTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 6 student Ava worked through multiplying tens and hundreds as well as division with decimals using her year-level text, plus completed a spelling practice from random words in her book.

In Year 10, Josh focused on preparing for his General Maths assignment and used a tool to practise rearranging equations.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Emily reviewed feedback on her English assignment draft and refined the content by editing sections according to her task sheet.

Recent Challenges

A Year 11 Biology student struggled to organise notes for a dense unit on metabolism; as one tutor noted, "breaking down objectives into flashcards and converting them into questions helped clarify revision."

In Year 10 Maths, a student found it difficult to distinguish between method, results, and discussion sections in reports—often not showing steps when rearranging equations, making feedback less effective.

Meanwhile, a Year 6 student repeatedly left homework and materials at school, missing out on spelling practice and task completion. These lapses in organisation or process made learning slower and led to extra time spent catching up instead of progressing.

Recent Achievements

A Hope Island tutor noticed Holly, a Year 11 student, took the initiative to contact her biology teacher for extra feedback on a challenging question and achieved an A in both maths and biology after consistently applying teacher and tutor suggestions—an impressive step up from her last results.

Meanwhile, Kirsty in Year 10 has become much more comfortable using literary devices independently in her creative writing, drawing on feedback and reading fiction to build richer characters; she recently scored 20/25 on her essay, surpassing her previous mark.

In Year 4, Jack volunteered to be timed for his compound words activity and completed it in under 16 seconds—his fastest yet.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Upper Coomera Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Coombabah State School.
